Parry Sound Place

Located at 10 Mall Drive in Parry Sound, Parry Sound Place is a new (2021) modern apartment complex, reflecting Virtus Diversified REIT’s dedication to maintaining and enhancing high quality properties. The building features 70 modern and well-appointed one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and bachelor units, catering perfectly to students, seniors, working professionals, or small families. In addition, there are 3 commercial units. The units are currently 95.7% leased.

The building is centrally located and has amenities within walking distance including Tim Hortons, No Frills, Hart, Subway, and Home Hardware. Canadore College is a 7-minute walk from the complex.

As part of the UNESCO Georgian Bay Biosphere Reserve, Parry Sound is known for being located adjacent to the world’s largest freshwater archipelago, Georgian Bay’s 30,000 Islands.

With this acquisition, Virtus Diversified REIT continues its mission to enhance the communities it invests in, creating lasting value for both residents and stakeholders.

I oversaw its transformation from a vacant grocery space to an upscale, modern 70-unit apartment building.” stated Aurelio Baglione, Trustee of Virtus Diversified REIT. “The reception to this project has been outstanding – we were fully leased prior to final completion. This property purchase aligns perfectly with the goals of the REIT: a quality product with sustainable cash flow.”
